I'm a happily married father of two, who loves pets, be they mammal, fish, bird, amphibian, or reptile. In my spare time, I love to stargaze, create Machinima films, play with my son's Legos, and just enjoy leisurely days at the beach with extended family
Silly me, I forgot to post the moon phase yesterday, which was Māhealani . The moon is nearly in the phase of Kulu now, though it isn't in the sky for most Americans right now, I know it is shining where it is night, or else about to rise. These will be good fishing days, so go fish!

Today 11/15/2024 is the day of Astronomical Full Moon, which the Hawaiians called Hoku. Yes the Hawaiians really did name every single moon phase. Facing East at the early evening, you will see the Hoku moon will rise in nearly perfect concordance with the setting sun behind you.

Today's moon phase is Akua, yes, Akua as in God/Goddess or spirit. In pre-contact times, this was a day were when people made offerings to their deities of choice or their ancestors in gratefulness for the Bounty they received.

As for the Hawaiian moon phase today? It's called Hua, and was traditionally considered to be presided over by the God Lono, the Hawaiian god of agriculture. On this day, plants of all kinds were planted. Yes, even this time of year, we Hawaii has a 12 month growing season.

Today's moon phase is Mōhalu. Traditionally, the night was seen as sacred to the god Kāne so in reverence, the Hawaiians abstained from fish, seaweed and fruits, although in modern times, we may enjoy these things freely, and with gratefulness. Do you people on the East Coast have a salmon run now

Wow so strict, I had to convert this to a JPG. I usually save these types of files as a PNG.

Many cultures have names for the full moon, but my adopted culture, the Hawaiian culture, has a name for every moon phase. What is today's moon phase? It's called Huna. When it is at the meridian, it's highest point in the sky, it is approximately 82% illuminated.
